"i have a question about caterpillars," saul said. "are you the right person to talk to? " the friendly young man smiled and said, "not really. my job is to sign out books from the library. the best person to talk with would be someone at the reference desk. they will surely you find an answer to your caterpillar question." so saul sauntered over to the reference desk in the other room and walked right up to the desk.
